The Diabetes Prevention Clinic will launch at the Montreal Heart Institute's EPIC Center to meet the growing demand for preventive services for patients with diabetes and prediabetes. The clinic will be open to patients with blood sugar levels near or above 7 mmol/L, as well as to the EPIC Center's 3,000 primary prevention and 1,600 secondary prevention members. Estimates suggest that 20 to 50% of patients hospitalized at the Montreal Heart Institute are diabetic.
